Holy War(s) : The Battle of Karbala


The Karbala: Story of sacrifice to save humanity from extinction (PDF eBook)


Moharram, the first month of Islamic Calendar, brings along with it a feeling of great sadness and sorrow in the heart of every Muslim. It is a month in which we commemorate Imam Hussain's (A.S.) victory in martyrdom, a victory which has permanently preserved the true Islam till the Day of Judgment. Allah has called this a "Momentous Sacrifice" i.e. "Zibhin Aazeem" in Holy Quran, chapter As-Saffat (37:107). We are all forever indebted to Imam Hussain (A.S.) for his great sacrifice. Let us join together and commemorate this loss and learn from the example of Imam Hussain (A.S.). To learn more, please download the following book in PDF format.
